"After a new faction of Mandalorians — The Neo-Crusaders — launched a raid against Contruum, I knew they would return. Their targets have all been carefully chosen around Alliance borders, so I can't help but feel like they're testing us. For many years, the Alliance has enjoyed peace with the Mandalorians in our Galaxy, but Mandalorians rarely sit still for long."
"This test of our strength and ability to respond will shape the future of this escalating conflict. If we do nothing and allow them to continue their raids, they will attack in full force, expecting to shatter our defenses. If we respond now and show our strength, they will feel challenged but they will also understand that we're ready for them."
"Contruum was only the beginning. Now, I'm on my way to Manaan and I'm urging you to do the same, my fellow Jedi."
